Meet Christine Meyer


Christine is living in Illinois

Why did you start scrapping?
I was searching for a hobby that didn't require hours to complete a project. Once my son was born I started to do a little scrapbooking and got hooked. I love that I can complete a page in about an hour and move on to the next project.

Three interesting things about Christine:
-I was born and raised in Los Angeles and moved to Austin TX for college. Since college I have moved with my husband for his career to St. Louis, Oklahoma City, Southeast Missouri, and now Illinois.
-My husband is a Pastor and I am blessed to be a stay-at-home mom
-Scrapbooking has always been a great stress reliever for me. Most recently it helped me get thru a miscarriage. My husband knew that if I was getting too sad he needed to send me to the basement to scrap! What a great hobby & hubby!

Meet Angela Wagner


Angela is from Illinois

Why did you start scrapping?

I have been filling up journals since before junior high. I am an English teacher. And I think we should all sit down and enjoy each other a little more. So it made sense when I found scrapbooking. Right after I got married in 99I started. The first thing I made was a theme book for my 4 year old cousin about our trip to the zoo. Theme/Mini books turned out to be my passion and I love making them as gifts to give family and friends. Wedding, shower, and birthday invitations came next. I love the process of designing and having an immediate result to enjoy. It’s a creative outlet for me – I have no intention of “keeping up” with the photos I take, just enjoying the pages I get to. I love it!

Three Interesting Things about Angela:

-I grew up in a tiny town and graduated in a class of 21. Like there were 20 other people in my class, on the stage with me, at graduation. I know. It’s crazy.

-Last year my husband and I bought a house. We planned to lift it up and put a new basement under it and then remodel it. But it fell in the process. So now we’re building a new one!

-I moved away from home and met new people and learned about the rest of the world. But I’m still GOOD friends with at least 3 people I went to high school with. People tell me that’s unusual. Not sure, but I like it.

Meet Kerri Y


Kerri is from Pennsylvania


Why did you start scrapping?
I started scrapbooking in December 2007. My husband, kids and I visited Disney July 2007 with both his parents and mine. We took 743 pictures while we were there. I decided, while out shopping, that I was going to buy Disney scrapbook albums and make them gifts for Christmas that year. So, I bought them, and then proceded to buy the papers, stickers, brads, glue, etc....Well, what was going to be a one time project turned into quite the addiction. I decided I was going to keep on scrapping and save our family memories. I haven't stopped since!

Three interesting things about Kerri:
-I'm the wife to Cory, and mom to three beautiful children Layton, Jaedon, and Delaney
-I watch more football than all the men in my life ( DH, father, sons, father-in-law, grandfathers) put together--I'm a die hard what can I say!
-In high school, I played on the boys soccer team, but I was a pageant girl who wore the crowns (hey, I was the tomboy who could dress it up)!
